Aneroid barograph

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003502

A recording instrument that continuously measures and plots atmospheric pressure changes over time using an aneroid capsule. The expansion and contraction of the capsule, in response to pressure variations, are transmitted to a pen that traces a line on a rotating drum. This device provides a continuous record of pressure trends, aiding in weather analysis.
